Liz is overjoyed to join the team at Amanda Gagnon Dog Training. Liz was born and raised in rural Indiana on a farm where her pet Pygmy goats, who definitely thought they were dogs, shaped her love of animals from a young age. She even taught the goats to walk on a leash!

Liz moved to NYC in 2018 and is a graduate of the American Musical and Dramatic Academy. To stay sane during acting school she became a part time dog walker on the UWS. The twist of fate of graduating into a pandemic led her to working as a dog handler at Far Fetched Pets since 2021. From there she realized her want to help dogs be their happiest self was just too strong so she completed the apprenticeship at Amanda Gagnon Dog Training.

In her free time you can find her swinging swords in Shakespeare shows and spending too much money in bookstores.

Liz is certified by the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers.
